Comparison between Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) and Fresh FrozenPlasma (FFP) for the Urgent Reversal of Warfarin in Patients with Mechanical Heart Valves in a Tertiary Care Cardiac Center. Iran J Pharm Res. 2015;14(3):877-885. Fariborz Farsad B, Golpira R, Najafi H, et al.
The transfusion tech calls to remind you that your protocol is currently under review, and asks if would you like the 1:1 or the 1:3 version of fresh-frozenplasma (FFP) to packed red blood cells (pRBC)? Noting with some relief that at least he isn’t anticoagulated, you activate the hospital massive transfusion protocol.
Joly, 2017; Sawler, 2020) Fresh frozenplasma (FFP) (contains ADMTS-13) may be used to supplement ADAMTS-13 if there is a delay in initiating TPE in the emergency department (i.e. The first TPE session should be completed prior to administration of any biologic therapies.
Reversal of Trauma-Induced Coagulopathy Using First-Line Coagulation Factor Concentrates or Fresh FrozenPlasma (RETIC): A Single-Centre Parallel-Group, Open-Label Randomised Trial. Severe acute traumatic coagulopathy = PT >1.5 to 3.33; P = 0.72 to 2.10; P = 0.03 PMID: 36942533 Innerhofer P et al. Lancet Haematol 2017.

They received fewer PRBCs, fresh frozenplasma (FFP), and platelets across their LOS, while total units and volumes were similar. Balance resuscitation strategy, often in a 1:1:1 ratio of PRBCs with fresh frozenplasma and platelets.
For patients on VKAs to prevent stroke in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who require reversal, 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) is preferred to fresh frozenplasma (FFP) because of the rapidity of INR reduction (Conditional recommendation, very low-quality evidence).
Fresh frozenplasma, or FFP, should only be given to cirrhotic patients as part of the massive transfusion protocol in cases of profound hypotension, as “patients with cirrhosis rarely have true enzymatic hypocoagulability, and FFP may worsen bleeding due to over-resuscitation and dilution of coagulation factors.”
Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) with fresh frozenplasma (FFP) is the first-line treatment, by simultaneously supplying fresh ADAMTS13 and removing anti-ADAMTS13 autoantibodies. Thus, early management is essential for patient outcomes. 4 Early hematology consultation should be obtained when TTP is suspected.
Major haemorrhage protocols typically include a mixture of packed red blood cells (pRBCs), platelets, and fresh frozenplasma (FFP). Platelets and FFP replace lost platelets and coagulation factors, which help with clotting and also provide some volume expansion.
Coagulopathy: Parenteral vitamin K and/or fresh frozenplasma (FFP) as clinically indicated. Can titrate up to maximum of 40 mg/kg/hr, although hypotension may limit dose of deferoxamine. 10 Maximum daily dose of 6-8g total of defuroxamine. Blood transfusion for clinically significant blood loss.
